I third it, if that makes sense. 100% silicone is non-porous, I've read a lot about silicone lately. Apparently there are a lot of companies who slap the "silicone" logo on their product so people will buy it. In a lot of cases the product is a blend of silicone and other materials. I never buy a silicone sex toy unless it says it is 100% silicone.

One way to know if your "silicone" toy is really silicone is to smell it, if it has lots of strong odors then it either has become porous, or is not 100% silicone. True Silicone toys should never give off odors, the only time mine have is when I have used an extremely strong scented anti bacterial soap on them. Which I do try to avoid using anything strong scented!

This is the first I've heard of silicone being porous. Are you sure they were talking about pure silicone, or was it possibly TPR silicone or something like that?

Some sex toys might be marketed as silicone, but occasionally (if the manufacturer's been kind enough) you might find something like "10% silicone" somewhere on the box in small letters. This drives me nuts, and it's why I love EF and a few particular companies so much.
